In this crypto-TradFi merge, I'm feeling my knowledge limits.I'm good at DeFi, comfortable with self-custody, 'get' tokenomics, and DAOs but lack TradFi expertise.Many crypto degens likely share this gap.We expected to revolutionize finance by leapfrogging TradFi altogether.The reality is a merger.TradFi is slowly adopting crypto, closing the knowledge gap on us, but we still have an edge.I feel slightly jealous to those who quit TradFi to join crypto early.Wonder what TradFi knowledge do we need so to reta ...

Staking & Economic Security - Staking yields should be low due to rare or non-existent slashing, as high interest for risk-free activities with slight liquidity disruptions is illogical [1] - The industry should be cautious about dismissing economic security, as increasing value on chains elevates attack incentives, and relying on social layers can lead to destructive politics [2] - Crypto-economic security aims to replace human interaction with enforced protocol rules; validators fearing slashing behave differently [3] - If a native coin isn't needed for security, it has little value, highlighting the link between coin value, incentives, and security [4] Tokenomics & Protocol Design - If security doesn't rely on incentives, the coin's value is questionable; equity issuance and stablecoin fees become viable alternatives [5] - More experimentation with slashing is needed in protocol design, balancing risk with worthwhile rewards [5] - A PoS chain with more slashing and higher inflation offers a sophisticated way to incentivize validators towards desirable outcomes, benefiting DeFi with risk-adjusted yield options [6]

Tokenomics & Staking Rewards - Avalanche community is discussing a 50% reduction in staking rewards via an ACP [1] - The proposed cut aims to save $120 million annually in emissions [1] - Validators would receive half of their current yield [1] - The emission debate continues despite network activity [1] Network Activity & Validation - The network processed 11 million transactions yesterday [1] - The network is supported by 1000 validators [1] Market & Investment - Grayscale has added AVAX to its top 20 holdings [1] - C-Chain is experiencing all-time high transaction volumes [1]
